You said, "Now how about your light coverage running fore and aft now?"
I'm not sure what you mean? I have a bimini top, not a T-top. No overhaed lights.

"Are you getting light form the trolling motor battery box all the way back to the rear casting deck?
I don't have a trolling motor battery or a trolling motor. See, I don't really fish. I've practiced. Isn't that what you call it when you don't catch anything? I purchase a license every year just in case there is a rod onboard and 'The Man' should stop me and ask to see a fishing license.
I do have dual batteries in the back with a battery switch. When I install the extra LED lights, they will run off the fuse box inside the console I installed, since my Logic 186 didn't come with one.

As far as the courtsy lights go, mine are located just above the console rod holders. The light shines out against the inside of the gunwales. Understand? Would you like me to post a photo? I may be installing the scuba tank racks today and photos will be in order there. I'll take a photo of the bulb in the socket it's self.

"Just wondering since many LED bulbs I have used "usually" have a very narrow beam of light" I'll try to make a night shot of the light pattern from the new bulbs so you can see how they perform. There are 6 LEDs in the bulb. See attached photo.

I hope this helps so far.......
